It is pretty cheap, has anyone used one and if you have, any issues...?
My stock just started to make a loud noise today, hope it doesn't die in the next couple days.

ebay + critical motor parts =

do it nice or do it twice.

Yeah, I'm with you. I think im just gonna go to VAST and pick one up tomorrow. Dealer is too expensive.

Yup do it right the first time or pay twice and hit yourself for not doing it right the first time..... Just talk to clay at CTS he will get you one cheap!

so look at the facts, not just because its from ebay.
fact 1) "Flow: 160LPH"
fact 2) "Operating Pressure: 15-90 PSI - final fuel pressure set by regulator"
lets say at best this pump flows 160lph @ 90psi. im betting this pump probably wont flow its max advertised rate at 58 psi.. our cars with a stock fpr operate at ~58psi therefore with this pump you'd only see (at best) 160LPH of pressure on a 4bar fpr.
that sucks.
get at least a whalbro - it flows 210LPH@80 PSI

okay.. rephrased..

ebay "brand" motor parts =

I dont care what they advertise, I will never buy an ebay "branded" critical motor part. If something doesnt work out what are you gonna do, write the seller a nasty message?

Get the good stuff from the get go

yeah but youre not helping much when someone's already considered buying the part and got past the "ebay" brand.. the pump sucks because it doesnt even flow as much as a whalbro which is cheap as it is.

i was the first to respond.

[ThirdStrike]

i was the first to respond.

regardless, your reason was "because its ebay" it must suck. thats not what he was asking. he wanted to know if its a worthy pump..

op; if you want a pulling pump i suggest the 005 option http://www.034motorsport.com/product...ducts_id=19543
if you want a pushing pump go for the 044 option

Thanks guys for the help.

or pm rippinralf on the vortex.

or just get vast's in-the-basket- walbro or bosch (but this one is expensive) and call it a day. I got their walbro and it was very easy swap.

Also, would you seriously buy a pump for your car that lists your car as:

Make Model Engine Size Production Date
Audi S4 S4 quattro 09/97-09/01

WTF is "S4 Quattro" engine?
